Ensure all petitions that have 100k signatures or more are debated in Parliament

Closed 65 signatures

What the petition asks

It states on this website that "At 100,000 signatures, this petition will be considered for debate in Parliament" yet any petition that has garnered 100,000 signatures or more should DEFINITELY be debated in Parliament.
Parliament and the Petitions Committee should realise that there is evident public interest in any petition that has achieved 100,000 or more signatures. Therefore, no 'considering' should occur and what needs to be implemented is that these petitions are debated regardless. 100,000 or more signatures clearly signifies that there is interest and MPs are paid more than enough to ensure that all these petitions are debated. No ifs or buts!
